A bit of Drive by Spring Dressing might not go amiss!.
Maybe get a stone rower ot two down there to erect the5 ton sarcen laying besides the spring?
I will create a panoramic between Silbury and Silbaby and align it in starry night pro.
Dames makes a lot of the alignment from the spring to silbury but I don't have his books to hand.

It has been suggested to me that maybe we are looking at this all wrong. Instead of it being a smaller silbury maybe Silbury is a huge emulation of the smaller mound with its semi natural features of a spring and moat.

Give him half a chance and he'll be down there with a lorry load of logs and a dozen conscripts. ;o)
